The psychosocial compliance platform for understanding and managing risk

Most organisations can't answer where psychosocial risk actually sits. ReFresh replaces spreadsheets and annual surveys with continuous psychosocial risk management across your entire workforce.

A wide, elevated shot looking down across a large open-plan Australian office from a mezzanine or internal staircase, taken in the mid-morning with soft, even daylight coming through floor-to-ceiling windows. Multiple distinct teams are visible across the floor at once, each in their own cluster: a group at standing desks, two people in a glass meeting room mid-conversation, someone walking between zones with a laptop. In the foreground, slightly off-centre, a WHS or People & Culture leader in her late 30s stands at the railing looking out over the whole floor, one hand resting on the rail, expression calm and attentive rather than concerned.

A national WHS director in her late 40s sitting in an airport lounge, laptop open on her lap, reviewing a dashboard that shows a map-style layout with state-level indicators — visible as coloured blocks arranged geographically but not legible. A boarding pass and a lanyard from a safety conference are tucked into the laptop case beside her. Her expression is one of composed oversight — someone managing a national programme between flights, checking the status across every jurisdiction her organisation operates in from a single view.

  A quiet, close-in shot of a WHS coordinator in her early 40s at her desk in a softly lit corner of an open-plan office, mid-morning light coming from one side. She's leaning slightly forward, looking at a laptop screen with a focused, curious expression, one hand on the trackpad, the other holding a pen resting on a printed page beside the keyboard with a few lines underlined.

Psychosocial Risk Assessment

ReFresh operationalises your organisation's risks against the 17 psychosocial hazard categories defined by ISO 45003, SafeWork Australia, and Comcare. A structured methodology for identifying, assessing, and treating risks, providing a defensible framework for ongoing compliance, governance, and reporting.

A WHS manager in his mid-40s and a people-and-culture lead in her late 30s sitting at a wide desk in a calm, well-lit office, working through a structured process together. He has a laptop open showing a multi-step interface — a left-hand navigation panel with numbered stages and a main panel with form fields and dropdown selectors, visible in structure and colour but not legible. She is sitting beside him with a printed copy of the Code of Practice open to a specific page, one finger resting on a paragraph she has just referenced.

Continuous risk data

Detect psychosocial risk signals such as job demands, support, role clarity, conflict, and leadership insights as they evolve.

Live scoring

Maintain a psychosocial risk score for every team, department, or location.

Measurable indicators

Generate trackable measurements mapped to indicators aligned with board and regulator expectations.

Track your health

Create a defensible trail of psychosocial risk and psychosocial health over time for compliance and investigations.

A wide, quiet shot of a modern office at the transitional moment between afternoon and evening — the overhead lights are still on but the window light has shifted to a warm, golden late-afternoon quality. Three workstations are visible in a loose diagonal across the frame, each belonging to a different function. The nearest desk has a monitor showing a survey-style interface with coloured hazard indicators.

The psychosocial operating system

Connect every signal of psychosocial risk

Every hazard identified here flows through to controls in safety orchestration and resolves into governance evidence, producing the end-to-end traceability the regulation requires.

What this enables

  • Link incident reports, survey results, and early concerns in one system

  • Identify patterns across teams and locations

  • Surface concerns through structured channels while protecting confidentiality

  • Produce audit-ready evidence for boards and regulators

Built for psychosocial risk intelligence

Structured identification, not once-a-year snapshots

ReFresh is psychosocial compliance software built around continuous detection, not an annual engagement survey repurposed for a legal obligation it was never designed to meet.

Surveys, incident reporting, analytics, and risk assessment in one system. Everything recorded, time-stamped, and linked to hazard categories.

No more disconnected surveys or spreadsheets. No more unclear reporting pathways or missing records.

A tight, grounded shot of a WHS coordinator's desk at the end of a productive day. The person is not visible — they have left for the evening. The desk tells the story: a single monitor showing a unified dashboard with four distinct panel sections — a survey completion tracker, an incident timeline, an analytics chart, and a risk register summary — all visible as coloured, structured shapes but not legible. The desk itself is tidy but lived-in: a keep cup with the lid off, a pen beside a closed notebook with a few page corners turned down, a lanyard coiled beside the keyboard.

82% of leaders using ReFresh identify psychosocial risk three months earlier than through engagement surveys.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

What is a psychosocial compliance platform, and what does ReFresh cover?

A psychosocial compliance platform is the system of record for identifying, assessing, controlling, and evidencing psychosocial risk, the way physical safety has had structured systems for decades. ReFresh is the psychosocial operating system built for that obligation. It covers the full compliance lifecycle across four connected pillars: risk intelligence (surveys, incident reporting, and risk assessment across the 17 hazard categories), safety orchestration (controls, tasks, and consultation), and governance and evidence (frameworks, board reporting, and a continuous audit trail), plus the worker experience that feeds them. Everything is recorded, time-stamped, and linked, so compliance becomes the byproduct of managing risk rather than a separate reporting exercise.

How is ReFresh different from an engagement survey tool?

Engagement surveys such as Culture Amp and Qualtrics measure how people feel about their work, their manager, and the organisation, and they are valuable for culture and retention. They were not built to identify psychosocial hazards against the 17 recognised categories or to produce the evidence a regulator expects, and a regulator will not accept an engagement survey as evidence of hazard identification. ReFresh surveys are structured around those categories and feed directly into risk assessment, controls, and reporting. Different tool, different job: ReFresh sits alongside your engagement survey, not instead of it.

We already use a WHS platform. Doesn't that cover psychosocial risk?

General WHS platforms such as SafetyCulture and myosh are strong for physical safety, incident logging, and inspections. Psychosocial hazards work differently: they have their own assessment methodology, their own control frameworks, and their own evidence requirements, which a physical-safety module is rarely designed to meet. ReFresh runs as the psychosocial layer alongside your existing WHS system rather than replacing it. Your WHS platform records what happened; ReFresh handles what you do about the psychosocial risk, and whether you can prove you did it.

How is ReFresh different from using a consultant?

Consultants provide valuable specialist advice, but they deliver a point-in-time report and then leave the organisation to implement, track, and evidence everything afterwards. Regulators do not just want to see that you identified risks once; they want evidence that you are managing them on an ongoing basis, and a consultant engagement from 18 months ago does not demonstrate current compliance. ReFresh is the ongoing system that operationalises the work and maintains the evidence continuously. Many organisations use both: a consultant for specialist advice, and ReFresh as the system that runs the cycle and proves it.

Do we still need an EAP?

Yes. An employee assistance programme provides reactive, individual support after someone is already struggling, which matters and should continue. It does not identify or manage the workplace conditions that create psychosocial risk, and having an EAP does not demonstrate to a regulator that you have identified and controlled hazards. ReFresh addresses the organisational obligation: finding hazards, assessing them, implementing controls, and producing governance-ready evidence. Your EAP supports individuals after harm; ReFresh helps prevent the conditions that cause it.

Do we need an existing WHS team or safety function to use ReFresh?

No, and this is the most common starting point. ReFresh provides the structure from scratch: hazard identification across the 17 categories, risk assessment, controls, and governance evidence, with no prerequisite WHS infrastructure, safety team, or prior experience required. Because it is purpose-built for this workflow rather than a generic platform you have to configure, most organisations get running without having to design a system first.

If a regulator audits us, does having ReFresh actually protect us?

Regulators run a process-based assessment, not an outcomes-based one: they look at whether you had reasonable systems in place and followed them. In practice that means being able to show you:

  • identified hazards across the 17 categories

  • assessed the risks

  • implemented controls

  • consulted workers

  • reviewed your approach over time

ReFresh maintains a continuous, time-stamped record across that full lifecycle, so you can invite an inspector into the platform or export an evidence pack that shows what you did, when, and why. No system removes all risk, but structured, evidenced processes are exactly what a regulator expects to see.

Does it cover multiple states, contractors, and multi-site operations?

Yes. ReFresh is built for Australian WHS law and accommodates the variations between states and territories, with framework activation for each jurisdiction you operate in. The duty covers workers in the broad sense, including employees, contractors, labour hire, and casual and frontline staff, and a shareable reporting link reaches people who do not have a platform account. For groups running several entities or sites, risk and reporting roll up across teams, locations, and states in one view, with multi-entity management for organisations that need separate data boundaries.

How is our data protected?

Psychosocial data is sensitive, and the platform is built for that. All data is hosted in Australia (AWS, Sydney), encrypted in transit and at rest, with role-based access so information is only visible to the people who should see it. ReFresh is SOC 2, GDPR, and Australian Privacy Act compliant, and undergoes annual independent security audits. Sensitive matters such as conduct or grievance reports can be restricted further so that only named people can view them.

How quickly can we get started, and is the platform modular?

Most organisations are up and running in about four weeks, covering setup, team configuration, and the first survey, and there is a hands-on onboarding option where the ReFresh team configures it with you, including HRIS connections such as BambooHR, Employment Hero, Deel, and HiBob. It is modular: you start with the modules you need now, from risk intelligence at the entry level through to incident and investigation management, compliance frameworks, and board reporting, and add the rest as you grow, all sharing one data model, one permission system, and one audit trail.

How does pricing work?

Pricing is tiered and scales with the capabilities and scale you need rather than a flat licence. The most useful way to frame it is against the cost of the current approach (manual hours, consultant fees, and the risk of gaps) and the cost of non-compliance: penalties reach $500,000 or more for organisations and average around $380,000 for a psychosocial breach, while a single psychological injury claim averages about $288,000 and takes far longer to resolve than a physical one.
